Just saw these. Amazing dude, this is really great! It feels quite disciplined and well thought out. your playing is spot on and the kinda classical feel is appealing to me. I envision castles and ancient landscapes for some reason haha, but thats super cool. So do ya like uncrossed most of the time or find it more natural? Its a great approach I think. It certainly has alot of potential to explore. Man I really should experiment more with that style. You got any tips or tricks for us? I like the actual compositions of course too. Dark hails to thee...

Thanks Oceans, I started to play it the Chapman Stick for about 2 years, I hope to finish my debut album this year. I'm glad you liked my songs. I'm working hard and messages like your help to move forward with more determination, thank you. Excuse my bad English. Unfortunately I do not know what advice to give to you. It depends very much on the tuning you. My tuner allows me to scroll around the neck of freedom, because the hands are not crossed. And most importantly allows me to play both hands at the same octave range.
Having a custom tune, I could not study the Chapman with the teaching on the Internet, because almost everyone plays the classic tune. I have chosen to study techniques to compose my music, and learn to play it. This allows me to study the technique that my brain needs to execute his ideas. This is the only advice I can give you.

Very nice, great level of musicianship, and very creative!! Excelent work on the DT covers, i actually play bass in a DT tribute band, and your Dance of Eternity sounded great!

hi paela,

you have really been playing only 2 years?? if that's true, i don't need any more incentive than that.

can you tell us what your custom tuning is?

your playing is just beautiful. please post anything new you do.

thanks, jimi

Oh... Thanks!!! Molte grazie!!!!
Yes, I bought the Chapman Stick in 2005, but I have not touched on until April 2010, I had no time to study the Stick. Now it's different.
My tuning is very simple, I have a 6-string bass for the left hand (BEADGC) and for the right hand ... from the lowest to the most acute: ADGCF Bb)
I have another song on the net, but only audio:

I hope to finish soon my first solo album.
Thanks again!

Very well played. So many twists and turns!

Amazing playing. I understand you, i boughy my stick in december 2010 and still have no time to practice. I played the stick a couple of times but not with the dedication and focus i want... It's just bass pays mi bills and with DT tribute coming soon i'm transcribing lots of songs!
The good thing is that now you have time and can use your energy on making music with the stick, your music inspires and that's awesome. Take care and keep posting your songs!
